EXCELLENT Based on 333 reviews Posted on Google Virginia StantonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Oz, Chris, Esteban, Araon and Adrian from HomeLink Solar & Batteries were all professional and efficient in the work they did at our house. Thank you guys so much!Posted on Google Roger DixonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience with Homelink was truly exceptional. The scheduled installation window was from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Upon my arrival at my vehicle in the driveway at 6:45 a.m., the team—comprising Anthony, Rafa, Freddy, Alex, and Marco—was already diligently preparing to commence the work. As a technician with expertise in both mechanical and electrical fields, I deeply appreciate observing a highly efficient operation, which this team consistently demonstrated. Their workmanship and the quality of their execution were remarkably impressive. They delivered an outstanding performance. Mike, one of the owners, and Ryan in operations came by to see how the installation was going. I really felt that it was very special for them to take time out of their busy schedule just to meet with me and see if I had any concerns and make sure everything was going well. This is what this company is all about; they have definitely changed my view and how I used to look at solar and all the horror stories I'd heard. If you're thinking about going solar, you should definitely give Homelink a call and speak with Ryan, who is very knowledgeable and will explain the process to you. I am so happy I did!Posted on Google Peggy MckalsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

They returned my inquiry call quickly, quoted a fair price and could schedule us reasonably quickly. They sent someone to take photos and do a pre-assessment and he was on time, polite, informative. Chris and Phil did the install, they were incredibly neat, kept us informed, and once done they thoroughly explained the system and the app. Great experience in an era when few experiences are great...Posted on Google jill HamiltonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We got a solar battery and Chris and Phil were so kind and helpful. There was a weird thing with our wall – not their fault – but they stayed longer on a really hot day and made sure everything was fixed and good. Above and beyond! Highly recommend!Posted on Google Kathleen GriegoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent crew, very knowledgeable and efficient! The crew - Esteban - Oz - Cole - AaronPosted on Google Jeffrey CannoneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cole, Bryan, Roger and Daniel showed up to our house for our install team. Not only did they show up on the early side of the arrival window. They did incredible work, very quickly! They were all experienced, and done this for a long time you can tell. Worked very well and efficiently together I ended up leaving for work. Came back later in the afternoon and they were just about finished. I was shocked. Thought it was going to be an all day job. Finished ahead of schedule in my opinion. Extremely happy with the entire experience. From the original call in to them inquiring. To them completely the job. Best experience I’ve had when it comes to home improvements! Highly recommend the entire team at Home Link. Ohh lastly I referred my neighbor and friend that lives locally to them already. Thank you guys!Posted on Google William WongTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cole, Bryan, Roger, Daniel are simply awesome. Very professional. Great job.
